Answer:

x = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice a number becomes 2x, decreased by 4 becomes -4, and combined those terms equal 32.

2x - 4 = 32

2x - 4 + 4 = 32 + 4 (isolate the variable)

2x = 36

x = 18

What would the ewuation be if a line goes through points -7,10 and 1,4

Makovka662 [10]

Do y-y over x-x
So 10-4 = 6 and -7 - 1 = -8
6/-8 = -.75 is your slope
plug it into a y= Mx + b equation along with a y and x pair
4 = -.75(1)+ b
4 = -.75 + b
Solve the equation which gets you to b= 4.75
So y = -.75x+ 4.75 is your answer
